This bookstore makes excellent use of its space in a typical LA strip mall and is brimming with a great selection of new and used books. Support indie bookstores!

I love independent & old fashion bookstores like this one. I've been here twice & it's near my volunteer work LCM (Little Company of Mary) down the street on Torrance Blvd. One of the employees I know is my former substitute teacher from my school days and the lady at the front desk I got know as well. Friendly service and convenient to Vons as well. Plus it has some of the books from my childhood like Franklin & Clifford. Everytime I stop by here it's like going down memory lane and I will keep shopping whenever and showing my support. 📚

amazing bookstore. such a great selection of new and used books. very organized and the owner/lady at register is so sweet and knowledgeable. it’s so nice to buy from someone who is passionate about what they’ve curated. everyone should be stopping here to browse for books!

Not a good sign when a customer shows up at 5 to see this even though your storefront and Google hours say you close at 6.

If you are looking to support a small business with an amazing selection and vibe this bookstore is the way to go. The employees are so nice and welcoming I didn't feel nervous to ask for recommendations. The have new and used books so if you don't have much to spend or you wanna splurge a bit it's all there. I thought the candles and metal pins were so cool. Definitely has a community vibe. Definitely will go again✨
